Case Study - Chester County Client Settles for $665,000

Philadelphia Accident Lawyer, Michael Mednick, and his client have reached a settlement with Allstate Insurance Company in a Chester County motor vehicle accident case shortly before trial for $665,000. The client was a UPS delivery worker. He was driving in stop and go traffic when he was struck in the rear by another vehicle. He subsequently developed neck pain and knee pain. The pain persisted and the client underwent a fusion surgery in his neck and a meniscus repair surgery in his knee. Thankfully the surgeries went well.

We were about to start trial when the case settled. We had already taken the video deposition of Dr. DerKrikorian, plaintiff's neurosurgeon. The defendant had taken their physician's video deposition. These depositions were going to be shown to the jury had the case not settled. Following the deposition of Dr. DerKrikorian, a substantial offer was made. We were then able to negotiate a favorable settlement for the client.

The client and his family expressed extreme gratitude towards the Philadelphia Personal Injury Law Firm of Mednick, Mezyk & Kredo. The client, his wife and son have moved to Iowa where the client now works as a corrections officer.
